1. AJ Brown WR Ole MissAs usual, the Steelers use free agency to fill the roster to the point they can go BPA in the draft. With no top ILB falling to pick 20 they take the best player available at a position of need. Replacing Antonio Brown will take a lot. AJ Brown is a very safe pick. I see him as a JuJu clone who can step in and contribute in year one which is needed. He also can excel in the slot or on the outside. With Brown and JuJu being a bit redundant, you rely on Moncreif and Washington to stretch the field and have Switzer and Rogers as slot depth. That makes a very solid 6 deep WR group, what it will take to replace AB.

3. David Long ILB WVUBig gap from the top ILB to the second tier. Long was productive, is a JR, tested well with sub 4.5 40. FA signing means he doesn’t need to start year 1.

3. Jace Stenenberger TE TAMUTE depth is nil and when the top guy is injury prone that’s a problem. Stenenberger fills a need, good receiving threat, ok blocker.

4. David Long CB MichiganTwo guys with the same name in the same draft, has to be a first. Steelers are looking at corners with ball skills, but Long didn’t get thrown at much so he didn’t pick off passes. If he slides this far, he could be a steal. Need depth and future replacement for Haden.

6. Cole Tracy K LSU Because fuck Boswell, that’s why.

6. Jack Bailey P StanfordBecause fuck Jordan Berry, that’s why.

6. Saquan Hampton S RutgersHope and a prayer on a late round safety

7. Ryquell Armstead RB TempleSomewhat similar to Jaylen Samuels from last year, RB/FB hybrid who can carry the rock. The Steelers love their big backs, here is one for depth.

I like Harmon the best of any WR in this draft, by far. I don't think he makes it out of the first 45 picks. I'm not a big fan of Murphy, but would be okay with it. Tough to tell in Washington who stirs the drink as there is so much talent in that secondary. KeKe would make a hell of a depth player. Hopefully would be the last of big softie Dan.

I think Deandre Baker is the best CB in the draft by far. His tape is the best of any that I have seen. I would rather have him than Murphy. I have zero confidence in the Steeler coaches training a new CB. Best get one that is NFL ready.

im pretty confident its gonna be Bush in rd 1, gonna be funny to see some reactions around here.

He wont be there...He is going top 15 IMO.

I think Bush is way overrated...I can think of four better defenders from that defense.

Harmon is one of my favorite players in the draft...He is a bit stiff. He didn't test well. Players like him recently have fallen. He tracks the ball as good or better than any receiver I have seen. He has some Hines Ward/JuJu to his game. To be honest I inverted Harmon and Joseph. I have Harmon in the 2nd and Joseph at the top of the 3rd

Lastly DeAndre Baker scares me...Ooozes talent. He is so fucking grabby. Reminds me of Denard from Michigan State a few years ago....Ball skills are average

Murphy seems like a Tomlin/Colbert corner. Ball Skills. Physical most likely the most physical willing corner in the run game in the draft

I love Harmon... he's too much the same as their present WR group. He's clearly in the JuJu/Washington/Moncrief ballpark. they really missed the speed guy/deep threat last year and it'll be even worse this year without AB. Do you trust Moncrief to draw coverage? Does he scare people that way? I don't think he does. They need some scary speed, which is why I say MBrown, Hall, Hardman is really the ticket. I chose Hardman because I think he's also the best return guy in the draft, and Steelers were somewhere between mediocre and terrible in the return game last couple of years.

Steelers semi shocker first round pickCB Omuwariye, first prototypical Steelers corner,Bigger, stronger, faster than Murphy, or Baker.I don’t think Murphy will be available, I’ve been seeing that Baker has character concerns.

6a b c, 7 EDGE, K, Punter, DL Expect no fewer than 2 Special Teams selections of some kind here. Their Special Teams were terrible and they retained the coach. They believe they need different players.
